Students bring multiple devices to campus, preferring mobile options like laptops and smartphones. They view technology as positively impacting their academic success, helping them learn and feel more engaged. While using devices for social and academic purposes, students prefer to keep these separate. Blended learning environments that incorporate technology are seen as most effective. Institutions should support ubiquitous wireless access and help desks, while examining job roles and available technologies. Faculty should question assumptions and partner with instructional designers to thoughtfully integrate appropriate technologies.

Presentation at the Online Teaching Conference Jun 18, 2015 in San Diego, CA:
The cost of textbooks has been identified as a major barrier for students completing their education. Colleges seeking to increase student retention and success are promoting the use of open educational resources and open textbooks to reduce costs and improve pedagogy. A key strategy for college adoption campaigns has been participating in communities of practice. Members of the Community College Consortium for OER (CCCOER) will share their best practices and other tactics for nurturing a national community of practice focused on open education.
Etienne Wenger defines communities of practice as “groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly.” With over 250 member colleges in 19 states and provinces, CCCOER encourages collaboration between members and invites OER project presentations at monthly online meetings. Experienced members advise those who are just getting started on OER and best practices are freely shared. Access to a community of college OER experts through our advisory listserve allows new members to quickly find and adopt the highest quality OER available. Meetups at regional and national conferences provide an opportunity to share and promote the OER adoption successes of our members with colleagues in higher education.

Learning analytics overview: Building evidence based practiceShane Dawson
Learning analytics aims to collect, analyze, and report on student data to understand and optimize learning. It draws on fields like education theory, social network analysis, and machine learning. Current analytics focus on retention and early intervention but are progressing towards predictive, adaptive, and recommender systems. Tools like SNAPP provide lightweight social network analysis to help interpret student interaction patterns and evaluate teaching interventions. However, ensuring privacy and developing analytics with appropriate educational context remain ongoing challenges.

- The document discusses proposed changes to the Sakai framework to introduce the concepts of hierarchy between sites and sections (groups) within sites.
- This would allow sites to be connected in parent-child relationships and for permissions and content to flow down the hierarchy. It would also allow additional groups to be created within sites.
- Tools would need to be designed to optimally make use of these new capabilities, either ignoring hierarchy, rolling up/down content, or being fully aware of hierarchy. The framework changes would enable both hierarchy and sections to be implemented before redesigning tools.
Tsugi and Koseu are open source software tools that allow anyone to easily build and deploy standards-compliant educational websites, content, and learning applications.
Tsugi acts as an "app store" that hosts learning applications and provides API libraries for developers to integrate their tools using open standards. Koseu is an educational website builder and content hosting platform, providing a simple "LMS-like" environment.
These tools aim to lower the barrier to developing and using interoperable educational technologies, helping train developers and allowing institutions and individuals to quickly create customized learning solutions.
Exploring the Next Generation Digital Learning Environment with TsugiCharles Severance
Tsugi is a next generation digital learning environment that allows for an educational app store and interoperability between different learning tools and content repositories. It fills gaps between existing standards like IMS Learning Tools Interoperability and IMS Common Cartridge. For the first time, an app store or learning object repository can be created without proprietary extensions. Tsugi aims to make educational technology startups and tools that teach easier to build, enrich open educational content, and allow for seamless integration and reuse of content across different systems through open standards.
CloudSocial: A New Approach to Enabling Open Content for Broad ReuseCharles Severance
This document summarizes several projects related to open educational resources and learning management systems. It discusses the CloudSocial project, which aims to enable tools from any learning system to be embedded in open web content. It also mentions the University of Michigan Medical School's efforts to develop a next generation LMS beyond traditional course-based systems. Finally, it introduces CloudCollab, an open source LMS written in Python that intends to implement IMS standards and allow hosting tool instances for multiple organizations.
The document discusses the next generation of digital learning environments (NGDLE). It argues that the NGDLE will not be a single application like current learning management systems, but rather an ecosystem of learning applications from an app store. Standards like IMS Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) and the emerging IMS Content Item and CASA App Store specifications will allow learning applications from different vendors to integrate and interoperate within the NGDLE ecosystem. The NGDLE is predicted to have over 100,000 learning applications accessible to teachers and students.
This was my presentation at "Jornada TELSpain: "eLearning 2020: empresas y universidades"
http://symposium.uoc.edu/event_detail/3133/detail/jornada-telspain.html
The document summarizes how universities are using MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) to reimagine teaching and learning. It provides examples of positive results from MOOC programs at the University of Michigan and Coursera. Enrollment numbers and revenue from Coursera courses are increasing significantly each year. MOOCs allow universities to offer educational opportunities to millions of students worldwide at low or no cost.
Charles Severance discusses the future of Sakai and next generation teaching and learning systems. Key points include:
1) Sakai-11 will have an improved, more flexible user interface and improved lessons tool. It will move to a continuous upgrade model and improve multi-tenancy.
2) Standards adoption is increasing and Sakai scores well compared to other learning management systems.
3) Next generation teaching and learning systems will have small modular learning management systems with features from abundant app stores and content repositories. This will allow scaling from hundreds to millions of students.
The document discusses the next generation of teaching and learning tools beyond traditional learning management systems (LMS). It outlines some of the key tenets of next generation tools, including being smaller and scalable, relying on external app stores and content repositories, and having more powerful authoring capabilities. Some early examples in this emerging space are mentioned, focusing on repositories, app stores, and platforms that combine small LMS functionality with external apps and content. Standards alignment is also discussed as important for next generation tools. The document concludes by suggesting how open source projects like Sakai could ensure survival by embracing these next generation approaches.
The document summarizes the history of learning management systems (LMS) in three acts based on a three-act story structure. Act 1 describes the early days of individual LMS vendors. Act 2 covers the period of rapid adoption and growth of many LMS vendors during the "gold rush". Standards organizations like IMS began working on interoperability standards to connect different systems. Act 3 suggests the LMS market is shifting towards a more open, interoperable "post-LMS" ecosystem driven by external tools and empowering teachers through standards.
1. Tsugi is a tool hosting framework that allows LTI tools to be installed and run within its PHP or Java-based container.
2. It emulates Moodle APIs and provides a multi-tenant environment for tools while keeping user data secure.
3. The framework supports LTI 1.x and 2.x specifications and can integrate other IMS standards like Caliper and CASA to host tools from an app store or custom sources.
Charles Severance discussed the history and updates of open standards for learning tools interoperability. He covered the development of LTI versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, and upcoming versions 2.1 and 2.2. LTI aims to allow learning tools from different providers to integrate securely with learning management systems. Version 2.0 introduced a RESTful architecture using JSON and registration of tools to share capabilities. Version 2.1 will add re-registration capabilities. Common Cartridge and Caliper analytics standards also relate to advancing open interoperability.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

14. Be an Introductory Course
• We need low-stakes "pre-requisite" courses in Coursera
• How to behave
• How to use the software
• How to write
• Figure out technical issues
• How to learn from others and help others learn....
15. Be an Open Learning Community
• Open Source works well when there is a "Benevolent Dictator"
• There needs to be real and enforced rules - but as few as possible
• Those in power must not hide behind their power and must share
their power with those who show the right behavior
• Must make valued behaviors "infectious" / "amplified"
16. Teach the Teachers
• I don't beleive that all students in the world should consider me their
teacher in this space
• I wrote a "book"- I want others to adopt it and re-mix it
• Related to making a "learning community"

18. Cheating Detection Experiment
• Thirty question exam
• Ten questions gave full credit for some wrong answers
• Total number of possible 30/30 answer keys = ~60,000
• Tracked the pattern of answer keys over the two-week exam period
26. • Charging for certificates
• Serving as matchmaker between companies and students
• Selling courses to community colleges
• Give course on campus and pay Coursera to support services
• Charge for secure assessments
• All these are just ideas....
